Here's a dodgy home video I just slapped together from a session last week at Glen Park boulders in SF. A_WE^SO_ME spot, C^RA_P videographer skillz...

It might have been pmonks A_{W_{E^SO_ME}} style, but did those look a little soft for the grade?

PS Did Rod manage to miss pmonks thousandth post some time in April? ;)

No soft grades - pmonks is just A_WE^SO_ME

Must say I don't miss the typical San Fran outdoor woody where ever hold is named and one small section of rock can hold dozens of problems. Indian rocks was great for this...

If by "awesome" you mean "that is 3 minutes of my life I'll never get back", then yes, that was awesome.

Turn the outtakes into a .gif and you have something worthwhile.

Yeah I used to feel the same way, but with such featured rock and so few other outdoor alternatives you get into the variant game after a while. It even starts to become A_WE^SO_ME!

Did you ever meet "Glen Park Mark"? He was the guy who put up "Mark's Traverse" (V11) at Mortar Rock. I met him at Glen Park once (he now lives up near Lover's Leap) and he really opened my eyes to the place - he said it was his favourite training spot. He also showed me the V3 in the video... ...foot free. ;-)
